I planned to reproduce and verify with LKP's reproducer so that it's 100% clear. Anyway, below patch should fix it. >From a39fdd50030a7d88a7f69bcba29e6f75020a1915 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Baoquan He <bhe@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 18 Oct 2023 22:50:14 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] mm/vmalloc: fix the unchecked dereference warning in vread_iter() Content-type: text/plain LKP reported smatch warning as below: =================== smatch warnings: mm/vmalloc.c:3689 vread_iter() error: we previously assumed 'vm' could be null (see line 3667) ...... 06c8994626d1b7 @3667 size = vm ? get_vm_area_size(vm) : va_size(va); ...... 06c8994626d1b7 @3689 else if (!(vm->flags & VM_IOREMAP)) ^^^^^^^^^ Unchecked dereference ===================== So add checking on whether 'vm' is not null when dereferencing it in vread_iter(). This mutes smatch complaint.
